THE FALSE CLAIM THAT THE 11 MEN OF THE GOVERNING BODY IS “THE FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE” AND “GOD’S CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION”
A sketch of the contents of each article is first given. Then follows a more detailed description.
The article “Introduction to the articles dealing with the Governing Body,” discusses the situation of the seven congregations in Asia (Revelation 1-3). This shows that there were some false doctrines and practices in the Christian congregations in the first century CE, and the same is true in the community of Jehovah’s Witnesses in the 21st century. Christians should obey their leaders, except when they require something that contradicts the Bible.
The book My Beloved Religion — And The Governing Body, chapters 2 and 3, show that there was no Governing Body in the first century CE and that there should be none in our time. It also shows that the phrase, “the faithful and discreet slave,” is not a prophecy of a group during Jesus’ presence. But it refers to all God’s servants who are faithful and discreet when the great tribulation comes.
The article, “God’s administration — his channel of communication,” shows that according to Ephesians, “God’s administration (oikonomia)” is identical with “God’s channel of communication.” God’s administration is abstract. It is God’s way of administering and managing things. Humans on earth, such as the 11 men in the Governing Body, are not “God’s channel of communication.” But God uses his servant to communicate with the human family by preaching the good news of the kingdom.
The article “God’s channel of communication — the difference between inspiration and direction,” discusses how God communicates with his servant by “inspiration” and “direction”. The difference is discussed, and it is shown that God only uses “direction” in our time. Examples of how the leaders of Jehovah’s Witnesses used “direction” before the Governing Body was instituted in 1971 are given.
The article “The members of the Governing Body and divine inspiration” shows that, despite the fact that God does not use inspiration in our time (only the Bible is inspired), the members of the Governing Body claim to be inspired by God. How the leaders taught Jehovah’s Witnesses in an environment of Christian freedom in the 20th century and in an environment of dictatorship in the 21st century is described
The article “Analysis of the evidence used to show that the Governing Body is ‘the faithful and discreet slave’” contradicts the claim that the present members of the Governing Body are inspired by God and, as a result, convey God’s truth to Jehovah’s Witnesses. The Watchtower of 2017 presents three lines of evidence that the Governing Body is “the faithful and discreet slave.” These three lines are discussed in detail, and it is shown that none of the arguments has a sound basis.
INTRODUCTION TO THE ARTICLES DEALING WITH THE GOVERNING BODY
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2020/11/12/introduction-to-articles-dealing-with-the-governing-body/)
MAIN POINTS: CHRISTIANS MUST SHOW RELATIVE OBEDIENCE TO GOVERNMENTS AND THE ELDERS. THIS MEANS THEY OBEY THEM IN EVERYTHING, EXCEPT WHEN THE GOVERNMENTS AND ELDERS VIOLATE BIBLE PRINCIPLES.
THE LETTERS TO THE SEVEN CONGREGATIONS IN ASIA IN REVELATION 1-3 SHOW THAT FALSE TEACHINGS AND WRONG ACTIONS OCCURRED IN THESE CONGREGATIONS, WHICH WERE A PART OF THE TRUE RELIGION.
IN A SIMILAR WAY, THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE INTRODUCED SOME FALSE TEACHINGS AND WRONG ACTIONS INTO THE COMMUNITY OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES IN THE 21st CENTURY.
IN THE SAME WAY AS THE MEMBERS OF THE SEVEN CONGREGATIONS IN ASIA SHOULD OBEY THE ELDERS OF THEIR CONGREGATIONS, EXCEPT FOR FALSE TEACHINGS AND FOR WRONG ACTIONS, WE TODAY SHOULD OBEY THE GOVERNING BODY, EXCEPT FOR THEIR FALSE TEACHINGS AND WRONG ACTIONS.
THE BOOK, MY BELOVED RELIGION — AND THE GOVERNING BODY, CHAPTERS 2 AND 3
(Can be downloaded from www.mybelovedreligion.no)
MAIN POINTS: THE CLAIM IS THAT THERE WAS A GOVERNING BODY IN THE FIRST CENTURY CE CONSISTING OF THE APOSTLES AND THE ELDERS IN JERUSALEM. AND THE PRESENT 11 MEN FOLLOW THIS PATTERN. CHAPTER 2 SHOWS THAT THIS IS NOT TRUE. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT THERE WAS A GOVERNING BODY IN THE FIRST CENTURY CE, AND THE BIBLE DOES NOT SAY THERE SHOULD BE A GOVERNING BODY AT SOME LATER TIME. A GROUP OF MEN WITH ALL POWER AT THE TOP OF THE CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY IS A VIOLATION OF SEVERAL BIBLICAL PRINCIPLES.
THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY CLAIM THAT THEY FULFILL THE WORDS OF JESUS ABOUT “THE FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE” IN MATTHEW 24:45-48. CHAPTER 3 SHOWS THAT THESE WORDS REFER TO ALL THE PERSONS WHO ARE FAITHFUL AND DISCREET WHEN THE GREAT TRIBULATION COMES. THE WORDS ARE NOT A PROPHECY OF A SMALL GROUP OF MEN WHO LIVE DURING JESUS’ PRESENCE.
GOD’S ADMINISTRATION — HIS CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2026/04/10/gods-administration-his-channel-of-communication-2/)
MAIN POINTS: THE AIM OF THIS ARTICLE IS TO SHOW WHAT IS GOD’S REAL CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION. IT IS SHOWN HOW THE PHRASE “CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION” IS USED IN THE LITERATURE OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES.
A DETAILED STUDY OF PASSAGES IN EPHESIANS SHOWS THAT “GOD’S CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION” IS IDENTICAL WITH “GOD’S ADMINISTRATION” (OIKONOMIA). IT IS SHOWN THAT “GOD’S ADMINISTRATION,” AKA “GOD’S CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION,” IS ABSTRACT — GOD’S WAY OF ADMINISTERING AND MANAGING THINGS.
BECAUSE “GOD’S CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION” IS ABSTRACT, THE 11 MEN OF THE GOVERNING BODY CANNOT BE “GOD’S CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION”. HOWEVER, TO MANAGE THE TRUTH JEHOVAH USES THE BIBLE, THE PREACHING OF THE GOOD NEWS OF THE KINGDOM, AS WELL AS PUBLICATIONS OF THE WATCHTOWER SOCIETY.
GOD’S CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION — THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN INSPIRATION AND DIRECTION
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2026/04/10/gods-channel-of-communication-the-difference-between-inspiration-and-direction/)
MAIN POINTS: DIFFERENT PASSAGES IN EPHESIANS ARE DISCUSSED, AND IT IS SHOWN THAT GOD’S TRUTH CAN ONLY BE KNOWN THROUGH HIS ADMINISTRATION, WHICH IS HIS “CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION.”
IN ORDER TO MAKE HIS TRUTH KNOWN JEHOVAH USES INSPIRATION AND DIRECTION. “INSPIRATION” MEANS THAT GOD GIVES INFORMATION DIRECTLY TO HIS SERVANTS, AND “DIRECTION” MEANS THAT GOD MANEUVERS A SITUATION IN A PARTICULAR WAY, AND HIS SERVANTS DRAW THE RIGHT CONCLUSIONS BASED ON THIS SITUATION.
THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN INSPIRATION AND DIRECTION ARE DISCUSSED IN DETAIL WITH EXAMPLES FROM ACTS CHAPTER 10.
IN OUR TIME, GOD USES ONLY “DIRECTION” AND NOT “INSPIRATION.” EXAMPLES OF HOW THE LEADERS OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES HAVE FOLLOWED GOD’S DIRECTION IN OUR TIME ARE DISCUSSED, AS WELL AS EXAMPLES WHERE THE GOVERNING BODY HAS WRONGLY CLAIMED GOD’S DIRECTION.
THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY AND DIVINE INSPIRATION
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2026/04/12/the-members-of-the-governing-body-and-divine-inspiration/)
MAIN POINTS: THE CONCLUSION OF THE ARTICLE IS THAT THE LEADERS OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES BETWEEN WORLD WAR II AND THE 20th CENTURY HAVE NEVER CLAIMED DIVINE INSPIRATION BUT HAVE FOLLOWED GOD’S DIRECTION, WHILE THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE IN THE 21st CENTURY BOTH DIRECTLY AND INDIRECTLY CLAIMED DIVINE INSPIRATION.
DIFFERENT QUOTATIONS FROM THE WATCHTOWER SHOW THAT BEFORE 1971, THE FOCUS WAS NOT ON PERSONS BUT ON THE TEXT OF THE BIBLE AND HOW EVERY WITNESS COULD BUILD UP HIS OR HER FAITH. PERSONAL DECISIONS WERE BASED ON THE CONSCIENCE OF EACH ONE, AND THERE WAS CHRISTIAN FREEDOM.
THE ARTICLE SHOWS HOW THE SITUATION CHANGED IN THE 21ST CENTURY WHEN THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY GAVE THEMSELVES ALL POWER OVER THE DOCTRINES, THE KINGDOM HALLS, AND THE MONEY, AND RULED AS A GOVERNMENT OVER JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES.
THE FOCUS WAS NOW ON THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY WHO CLAIMED TO BE APPOINTED OF GOD AS HIS CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION. THERE WAS NO LONGER CHRISTIAN FREEDOM. QUOTATIONS FROM THE WATCHTOWER SHOW HOW THE 11 MEN OF THE GOVERNING BODY DIRECTLY AND INDIRECTLY CLAIMED DIVINE INSPIRATION.
ANALYSIS OF THE EVIDENCE USED TO SHOW THAT THE GOVERNING BODY IS “THE FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE”
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2026/04/09/analysis-of-evidence-used-to-show-that-the-governing-body-is-the-faithful-and-discreet-slave/)
MAIN POINTS: IN HIS GREAT PROPHECY, JESUS SPEAKS OF “THE FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE” (MATTHEW 24:45-48). THE CONTEXT SHOWS THAT THE MENTIONED WORDS REPRESENT AN ILLUSTRATION REFERRING TO ANY SERVANT OF GOD WHO IS FAITHFUL AND DISCREET WHEN JESUS COMES IN THE GREAT TRIBULATION.
THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY ERRONEOUSLY TAKE THE EXPRESSION “THE FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE” AS A PROPHECY, AND THEY CLAIM THAT THEY, THE 11 MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY, FULFILL THIS PROPHECY.
THE WATCHTOWER OF FEBRUARY 2017 PRESENTS THREE LINES OF EVIDENCE IN FAVOR OF THE 11 MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY BEING “THE FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE”:
1) RELIANCE ON GOD’S WORD,
2) EVIDENCE OF HOLY SPIRIT
3) EVIDENCE OF ANGELIC ASSISTANCE
THESE THREE LINES OF EVIDENCE ARE ANALYZED IN DETAIL, AND THE CONCLUSION IS THAT THE ARGUMENTS OF THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE NO BASIS IN THE BIBLE WHATSOEVER. THIS MEANS THAT THE ARGUMENTS OF THE 11 MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY THAT THEY ARE “THE FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE” ARE FALSE.

THE WAY OF THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY TO GET ALL POWER IN THE ORGANIZATION OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES AND BECOME DICTATORS
The article “Personal freedom or slavery in the community of Jehovah’s Witnesses” presents the Bible’s view of slavery versus freedom. It shows that the law of Moses is abolished, and the Christians must follow “the law of Christ.” The Christian Greek Scriptures say that a person is a slave to the one he or she obeys. Because the members of the Governing Body in the 21st century have functioned as a government for Jehovah’s Witnesses, and the members of the Governing Body have created 200+ laws in addition to the Law of Christ. Jehovah’s Witnesses have become their slaves.
The article “The dictatorship of the Governing Body II — the Governing Body’s way to dictatorship,” shows how individual Witnesses had Christian freedom, and the bodies of elders, to a great extent, were independent of the Governing Body after the elder arrangement was introduced in 1972. Then the members of the Governing body made a plan to gain control over the congregations’ property and their money. The article provides several details on how this plan was implemented and executed, leading to the transition from theocratic to dictatorial rule.
The article “The dictators draw the line — How the Governing Body has restricted the freedom of Jehovah’s Witnesses” refers to The Watchtower of October 1972, where we find the maxim: “Where God’s Word does not itself ‘draw the line,’ no human has the right to add to that Word by doing so.” This is Christian freedom. The article shows how the members of the Governing Body, in detail, have drawn the line contrary to the Bible and made rules and laws that restrict the freedom of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
The article “The dictatorship of the Governing Body I — The power struggle inside the Governing Body in the 1980s and 1990s” shows that the organization’s current dictatorial structure stems from Ted Jaracz, a hardliner, being the victor of the power struggle. The article shows how the members of the Governing Body dissolved a department of deep study of the original languages at Brooklyn Bethel and have forbidden individual Witnesses from doing biblical research.
PERSONAL FREEDOM OR SLAVERY IN THE COMMUNITY OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES?
MAIN POINTS: THE ARTICLE DESCRIBES HOW THE LAW OF MOSES WAS ABOLISHED BY JESUS CHRIST. THE CHRISTIANS MUST FOLLOW THE LAW OF CHRIST, AND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO LAWS IS DISCUSSED. THEN THERE IS A DETAILED DISCUSSION OF WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE LAW OF CHRIST.
SEVERAL PASSAGES FROM GALATIANS ARE DISCUSSED. PAUL WROTE THAT A PERSON IS A SLAVE TO THE ONE HE OR SHE IS OBEYING. THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE CREATED 200+ LAWS IN ADDITION TO THE LAW OF CHRIST. THESE LAWS MUST BE FOLLOWED AT THE THREAT OF DISFELLOWSHIPPING. THEREFORE, THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE MADE JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES THEIR SLAVES.
THE DICTATORSHIP OF THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY II —THE GOVERNING BODY’S WAY TO DICTATORSHIP
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2025/03/04/the-dictatorship-of-the-governing-body-ii-the-governing-bodys-way-to-dictatorship/)
MAIN POINTS: IN THE DAYS OF C.T. RUSSELL, THE ORGANIZATION WAS DEMOCRATIC. IN THE DAYS OF J.F RUTHERFORD AND N.H. KNORR, IT WAS THEOCRATIC, AND IN THE 21st CENTURY IT HAS BEEN DICTATORIAL.
FOR THREE DECADES AFTER WORLD WAR II. INDIVIDUAL WITNESSES HAD CHRISTIAN FREEDOM, AND MOST OF THIS FREEDOM CONTINUED THROUGHOUT THE 20th CENTURY. WHEN THE ELDER ARRANGEMENT WAS INSTITUTED IN 1972, THE BODIES OF ELDERS WERE TO A GREAT EXTENT INDEPENDENT OF THE GOVERNING BODY. FROM 1976, THE GOVERNING BODY STARTED TO TAKE AWAY THE POWER OF THE BODIES OF ELDERS, AND IN THE 21st CENTURY, THE ELDERS HAVE VERY LITTLE POWER.
IN 2009, THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING LAUNCHED A PLAN TO GAIN THE OWNERSHIP OF THE PROPERTIES OF THE CONGREGATIONS AND THE MONEY. AND ABOUT SIX YEARS LATER, THIS GOAL HAD BEEN ACHIEVED. NOW THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAD ALL POWER OVER THE DOCTRINES, THE PROPERTIES, AND THE MONEY.
HOW THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY MANEUVERED THE SITUATION UNTIL THEY GAINED ALL POWER OVER THE DOCTRINES, THE PROPERTY, AND THE MONEY IS DISCUSSED IN DETAIL.
DICTATORS DRAW THE LINE — HOW THE GOVERNING BODY HAS RESTRICTED THE FREEDOM OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2025/03/04/dictators-draw-the-line-how-the-governing-body-has-restricted-the-freedom-of-jehovahs-witnesses/)
MAIN POINTS: THE ARTICLE SHOWS HOW THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE MADE LAWS AND RULES WITHOUT ANY BASIS IN THE BIBLE, AND BY THIS RESTRICTED THE FREEDOM OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES. THE FOLLOWING EXTRA-BIBLICAL LAWS ARE DISCUSSED:
THE PROHIBITION OF THE USE OF COAGULATION FACTORS VIII AND IX (1972-1975)
DISFELLOWSHIPPING OF WITNESSES WHO USE TOBACCO (1973-2026)
THE PROHIBITION OF THE USE OF METHADONE (1973-2013)
DISSOLVING MARRIAGES CONTRARY TO THE WORDS OF JESUS (1974-1978)
DICTATORIAL LAWS REGARDING SECULAR WORK (1974-2026)
THOSE WHO RESIGN ARE DISFELLOWSHIPPED (1981-2026)
ORAL AND ANAL SEX ARE AGAIN DISFELLOWSHIPPING OFFENSES (1983-2026)
RED BLOOD CELLS, WHITE BLOOD CELLS, PLATELETS, AND BLOOD PLASMA ARE PROHIBITED (1950s-2026)
STORING ONE’S OWN BLOOD IS PROHIBITED (2000- 2026)
IN THE 21st CENTURY:
37 NEW DISFELLOWSHIPPING OFFENSES ARE INVENTED
A CRUSADE AGAINST HIGHER EDUCATION LASTED 20 YEARS
NEW AND WRONG INTERPRETATIONS OF BIBLICAL TEXTS ARE INTRODUCED
THE BELIEF IN THE FULL INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE IS ABANDONED
THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE ELEVATED THEMSELVES TO DICTATORS.
THE DICTATORSHIP OF THE GOVERNING BODY I — THE POWER STRUGGLE INSIDE THE GOVERNING BODY IN THE 1980s AND 1990s
MAIN POINTS: IN THE 1980s AND 1990s, THERE WAS A POWER STRUGGLE WITHIN THE GOVERNING BODY BETWEEN THEODORE JARACZ, WHO WAS A HARDLINER SEEKING POWER, AND WILLIAM LLOYD BARRY, WHO DID NOT WANT MORE POWER.
IN 1999, BARRY DIED, AND JARACZ BECAME THE LEADER OF THE GOVERNING BODY. HE INTRODUCED A NUMBER OG LAWS AND RULES BEFORE HIS DEATH IN 2010, AND HE IS THE MAIN REASON WHY THE ORGANIZATION IN THE 21ST CENTURY HAS BECOME DICTATORIAL.
MOST IMPORTANT IS THE REJECTION OF THE FULL INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE. IN THE 1980s, THERE WAS A DEPARTMENT WITH BROTHERS KNOWING THE LANGUAGES OF THE BIBLE THAT WAS STUDYING THE NUANCES AND THE SUBTLETIES OF THE BIBLE’S ORIGINAL TEXT.
MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY SAW THIS DEPARTMENT AS A RIVAL TO THEMSELVES — THEY SHOULD BE THE ONLY TEACHERS — AND THE WHOLE DEPARTMENT WAS SHUT DOWN.
SOME YEARS LATER, THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY SENT A LETTER TO ALL WITNESSES FORBIDDING PERSONAL RESEARCH IN THE BIBLICAL LANGUAGES OR IN OTHER SUBJECTS RELATED TO THE BIBLE. ALL TEACHING WOULD COME FROM THE GOVERNING BODY.

THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE FULL INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE
The article “The members of the Governing Body do not believe in the full inspiration of the Bible (Part I) discusses what it means to believe in the full inspiration of the Bible. Based on different scriptures, the following requirements are presented:
- We must take every account literally if the context explicitly does not say that a text is figurative.
- We must believe that every account is included with a particular purpose
- We must accept that all subtleties and nuances in the text are important.
The article “The members of the Governing Body do not believe in the full inspiration of the Bible (Part II) discusses the five revolutions that has occurred among the Bible Students and Jehovah’s Witnesses — in the 1870s, 1924, 1965, 1988, and 2015. Four revolutions had to do with the ransom sacrifice and the resurrection from the dead.
The article discusses the fourth revolution and shows how the members of the Governing Body refuse to accept what the Christian Greek Scriptures say about the resurrection. This refusal to accept the Bible’s text shows that the members of the Governing Body do not believe in the full inspiration for the Bible.
The article “The members of the Governing Body do not believe in the full inspiration of the Bible (Part III) discusses the fifth revolution, where the members of the Governing Body, in The Watchtower of March 15, 2015, show that they do not believe that all accounts in the Bible were included with a particular purpose. This means that they, in reality, believe in biblical “junk texts.”
The Song of Solomon is such a “junk text,” and this book is discussed in detail. The article shows that the members of the Governing Body do not take numerous texts in the Hebrew Scriptures at face value. But they have transferred the authority of the Bible’s text to themselves by saying that what is important is what these texts remind the members of the Governing Body, not their literal meaning.
By refusing to accept that all accounts in the Bible are included with a particular purpose and that the nuances and subtleties of the original text are important, they show that they do not believe in the full inspiration of the Bible.
The article “The members of the Governing Body do not believe in the full inspiration of the Bible (Part IV) discusses the New World Translation revised in 2013 (NWT13) in contrast to the original New World Translation (NWT84). The members of the Governing Body instructed the translators to produce an idiomatic translation rather than conveying all the nuances and subtleties of the original text into English. Therefore, the text of the NWT13 is a witness, showing that the members of the Governing Body do not believe in the full inspiration of the Bible.
THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE FULL INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE (PART I)
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2026/04/24/the-members-of-the-governing-body-do-not-believe-in-the-full-inspiration-of-the-bible-part-i/)
MAIN POINTS: THE BEST TRANSLATION OF 2 TIMOTEUS 3:16 IS “ALL SCRIPTURES THAT IS INSPIRED BY GOD” AND NOT “ALL SCRIPTURE IS INSPIRED BY GOD.” IT IS SHOWN THAT TO RIGHTLY SAY THAT A PERSON BELIEVES IN THE FULL INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE, THERE ARE THREE REQUIREMENTS THAT MUST BE FILLED:
- WE MUST TAKE EVERY ACCOUNT LITERALLY IF THE CONTEXT EXPLICITLY DOES NOT SAY THAT A TEXT IS FIGURATIVE.
- WE MUST BELIEVE THAT EVERY ACCOUNT IS INCLUDED WITH A PARTICULAR PURPOSE
- WE MUST ACCEPT THAT ALL SUBTLETIES AND NUANCES IN THE TEXT ARE IMPORTANT.
THE ARTICLE DISCUSSES THE SCRIPTURES THAT ARE THE BASIS FOR EACH OF THE THREE POINTS.
THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE FULL INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE (PART II)
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2026/04/24/the-members-of-the-governing-body-do-not-believe-in-the-full-inspiration-of-the-bible-part-ii/)
MAIN POINTS: THERE HAVE BEEN FIVE REVOLUTIONS AMONG THE BIBLE STUDENTS AND JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES — IN THE 1870s, 1924, 1945, 1988, and 2015. FOUR OF THESE ARE RELATED TO THE RANSOM SACRIFICE OF JESUS CHRIST AND THE RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD.
THE ARTICLE DISCUSSES THE REVOLUTION OF 1988, WHEN THE GOVERNING BODY PUBLICLY REFUSED TO ACCEPT WHAT JESUS CHRIST SAID ABOUT THE RESURRECTION, THAT THE INHABITANTS OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH WOULD BE RESURRECTED.
THE ARTICLE DISCUSSES SCRIPTURES SHOWING THAT THE VIEW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY REGARDING THE RESURRECTION IS ERRONEOUS.
FIRST CORINTHIANS 15:21, 22, WHERE PAUL SAYS, CONTRARY TO THE GOVERNING BODY, THAT ALL WHO HAVE DIED BECAUSE OF INHERITED SIN WILL RECEIVE A RESURRECTION IS DISCUSSED IN DETAIL. THE WORDS OF JESUS REGARDING THE RESURRECTION OF CHORAZIN, CAPERNAUM, TYRE, SIDON, AND SODOM IN MATTHEW 11:20-24 ARE DISCUSSED IN DETAIL.
THE FAILURE OF THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY TO ACCEPT THE WORDS OF PAUL AND JESUS REGARDING THE RESURRECTION SHOWS THAT THEY DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE FULL INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE.
THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE FULL INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE (PART III)
MAIN POINTS: THIS ARTICLE DISCUSSES WHAT I CALL “JUNK TEXT.” AN ARTICLE IN THE WATCHTOWER OF MARCH 2015 SHOWED THAT THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY DO NOT BELIEVE THAT ALL ACCOUNTS IN THE BIBLE WERE INCLUDED WITH A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THIS MEANS THAT MANY ACCOUNTS HAVE NO MEANING FOR US TODAY AND MUST BE CALLED “JUNK TEXTS.”
THE CONSEQUENCES OF THIS NEW VIEW (THE FIFTH REVOLUTION) ARE THAT 38 BOOKS PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED BY THE WATCHTOWER SOCIETY, IN PART OR IN WHOLE, ARE PURE FICTION. HUNDREDS OF ARTICLES IN THE WATCHTOWER ARE ALSO PURE FICTION. THE 38 BOOKS ARE LISTED.
THE SONG OF SOLOMON IS VIEWED AS A “JUNK TEXT.” IT HAS 8 CHAPTERS AND 117 VERSES, AND MORE THAN 95% OF THIS TEXT IS “JUNK” — IT HAS NO MEANING AND NO PURPOSE FOR GOD’S SERVANTS, ACCORDING TO THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY. THIS TEXT OF THIS BOOK IS DISCUSSED IN DETAIL.
THE NEW WAY OF TREATING THE TEXT OF THE HEBREW SCRIPTURES, AS REMINDERS FOR THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY INSTEAD OF FINDING THE LITERAL MEANING OF THE TEXTS, IS DISCUSSED. IT IS SHOWN THAT MOST OF THE REMINDERS THAT ARE PRESENTED BY THE GOVERNING BODY ARE PETTY STATEMENTS RATHER THAN IMPORTANT MESSAGES FROM GOD.
THE FIFTH REVOLUTION, AND THE NEW WAY OF TREATING THE TEXTS IN THE BIBLE, SHOWS THAT THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE FULL INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE.
THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE FULL INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE (PART IV)
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2026/04/26/the-members-of-the-governing-body-do-not-believe-in-the-full-inspiration-of-the-bible-part-iv/)
MAIN POINTS: THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY REJECTED THE TRANSLATION PRINCIPLES OF THE ORIGINAL NWT84:
- Accurate renderings of the nuances of Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic verbs.
- The use of one English word for each word in the original text when the context allows it.
- The extreme care to render all the nuances and subtleties of the original text into English.
BASED ON THE PRESENTATION OF NWT13 IN THE WATCHTOWER OF DECEMBER 15, 2015, I SHOW THAT THE NWT13 TRANSLATORS DID NOT UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF THE HEBREW AND GREEK VERBS, AND NEITHER DID THEY UNDERSTAND THE REASONS WHY THE NWT84 TRANSLATORS RENDERED THE VERBS THE WAY THEY DID.
THE FAILURE OF RENDERING THE NUANCES AND SUBTLETIES OF THE VERBS AND OTHER WORDS IN THE ORIGINAL TEXT, HAVE LEAD TO A TRANSLATION LACKING ACCURACY. EXAMPLES OF HOW THIS LACK OF ACCURACY CONFUSE DOCTRINAL ISSUES ARE GIVEN.
NWT13 IS AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE SHOWING THAT THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE FULL INSPIRATION OF THE BIBLE.
CATEGORY 4
ADDED. APRIL 28, 2026
THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY’S VIEW OF SEX
The article “The 11 disfellowshipping offenses 2: Illicit sexual intercourse (porneia) shows that the members of the Governing Body have defined the Greek word porneia in 12 different ways. But porneia has only one meaning in The Christian Greek Scriptures, namely, “illicit sexual intercourse.” The word porneia has three references or applications: 1) Sexual intercourse between a married person and one to whom he or she is not married, 2) Sexual intercourse between unmarried persons, and 3) Sexual intercourse between homosexuals. Thousands of Witnesses have been disfellowshipped because of the Governing Body’s wrong definitions of porneia.
The article Illicit sexual intercourse (porneia) is a long article discussing different sides of porneia. It shows, in detail, when and how the 12 different definitions of porneia were introduced, with quotes from The Watchtower. It discusses the linguistic principles for determining the meanings of porneia and other words. It analyses the use of porneia in the book for elders, “Shepherd the Flock of God,” and shows the weaknesses of the way the judicial committees are handling cases related to porneia.
The article The Governing Body making the gift of sex filthy (I) Masturbation shows that the word “masturbation” is not mentioned in the Bible. It argues that the apostle Paul indirectly mentions masturbation without condemning it. The Watchtower has often condemned masturbation without any basis in the Bible. Because of this, the members of the Governing Body have placed an unnecessary burden on the shoulders of youngsters and others.
The article The Governing Body making the gift of sex filthy (II) lewd sex inside marriage shows that in 1972, anal and oral sex became disfellowshipping offenses. In 1974, these actions were defined as porneia, so marriages could also be dissolved. In 1978, the condemnation of anal and oral sex was retracted. From now on, these actions were no longer considered porneia or disfellowshipping offenses. In 1983, anal and oral sex became disfellowshipping offenses again, but they were not porneia. In 2026, anal and oral sex no longer were disfellowshipping offenses. In the years between 1874 and 1978, thousands of marriages were dissolved for unbiblical reasons, and men, women, and children were suffering.
The article The Governing Body making the gift of sex filthy (III) Disfellowshipping on the basis of lewd thoughts and inclinations shows that persons are disfellowshipped for what they think and feel. Pornography is not mentioned in the Bible. But the members of the Governing Body have decided that viewing 11 forms of pornography can lead to disfellowshipping. The 11 forms of pornography are discussed, and it is shown that there are problems in defining most of these forms. The members of the Governing Body have invented the concept “Gross uncleanness with greediness,” which has no basis in the Bible. When Witnesses are disfellowshipped because of a violation of this concept, they are disfellowshipped because of their thoughts and inclinations.
THE 11 DISFELLOWSHIPPING OFFENSES 2: ILLICIT SEXUAL INTERCOURSE (PORNEIA)
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2023/12/04/disfellowshipping-on-the-basis-of-human-ignorance-the-case-of-porneia/)
MAIN POINTS: THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE WRONGLY DEFINED 12 DIFFERENT ACTIONS AS PORNEIA. BUT THE ONLY MEANING OF THE WORD IN THE CHRISTIAN GREEK SCRIPTURES IS “ILLICIT SEXUAL INTERCOURSE.” ACTIONS THAT THE CHRISTIAN GREEK SCRIPTURES DEFINE AS “ILLICIT SEXUAL INTERCOURSE” ARE:
- SEXUAL INTERCOURSE BETWEEN A MARRIED PERSON AND ONE TO WHOM HE OR SHE IS NOT MARRIED.
- SEXUAL INTERCOURSE BETWEEN UNMARRIED PERSONS
- SEXUAL INTERCOURSE BETWEEN HOMOSEXUALS.
THE ARTICLE DEFINES THE GREEK WORDS PORNEIA AND MOIKHEIA BY REFERRING TO PARTICULAR SCRIPTURES. IT SHOWS THAT ONLY WHEN A CHRISTIAN IS PERMEATED BY ILLICIT SEXUAL INTERCOURSE AND PRACTICES IT, THE PERSON CAN BE DISFELLOWSHIPPED FROM THE CONGREGATION.
ILLICIT SEXUAL INTERCOURSE (PORNEIA)
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2021/04/20/sexual-immorality-porneia/)
MAIN POINTS: THIS IS A LONG ARTICLE WITH FOUR SECTIONS.
THE FIRST SECTION:
BETWEEN 1956 AND 2018, THE LEADERS OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES PRESENTED 12 DIFFERENT DEFINITIONS OF PORNEIA. EACH DEFINITION IS DISCUSSED IN DETAIL WITH QUOTATIONS FROM THE WATCHTOWER AND OTHER SOURCES.
THE SECOND SECTION:
THE LINGUISTIC PRINCIPLES FOR ASCERTAINING THE MEANING AND REFERENCES OF A WORD, WITH PARTICULAR FOCUS ON PORNEIA.
THE THIRD SECTION:
AN ANALYSIS OF THE DEFINITION OF PORNEIA IN THE ELDERS’ BOOK.
THE FOURTH SECTION:
THE WEAKNESS IN THE HANDLING OF JUDICIAL CASES OF ACTIONS VIEWED AS PORNEIA.
THE GOVERNING BODY MAKING THE DIVINE GIFT OF SEX FILTHY (I) MASTURBATION
MAIN POINTS: THE WORD “MASTURBATION” IS NOT MENTIONED IN THE BIBLE. HOWEVER, PAUL INDIRECTLY MENTIONS MASTURBATION WITHOUT CONDEMNING IT. WHAT THE WATCHTOWER LITERATURE SAYS ABOUT MASTURBATION IS DISCUSSED.
MUCH OF WHAT THE WATCHTOWER LITERATURE HAS SAID ABOUT MASTURBATION IS MISLEADING. THE WORDS OF JESUS THAT IF A MAN “KEEPS ON LOOKING AT A WOMAN SO AS TO HAVE PASSION FOR HER, HAS ALREADY COMMITTED ADULTERY (MOIKHEUŌ) WITH HER IN HIS HEART” (MATTHEW 5:28) IS USED TO CONDEMN MASTURBATION.
BUT THIS IS A MISUSE OF THE BIBLE. THE VERB MOIKHEUŌ SHOWS THAT THIS IS RELATED TO MARRIED MEN, WHO HAVE NO RIGHT TO LOOK AT OTHER WOMEN THAN THEIR WIVES. THE DISCUSSIONS OF MASTURBATION PUT AN UNNECESSARILY STRONG BURDEN ON THE SHOULDERS OF YOUNGSTERS AND OTHERS.
THE BEAUTIFUL GIFT OF OUR SEXUAL DRIVE IS MADE FILTHY.
THE GOVERNING BODY MAKING THE DIVINE GIFT OF SEX FILTHY (II) LEWD SEX INSIDE MARRIAGE
MAIN POINTS: GOD HAS GIVEN HUMANS THE BEAUTIFUL GIFT OF A STRONG SEXUAL DESIRE. BUT THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE MADE THIS DIVINE GIFT FILTHY.
BETWEEN 1945 AND 1972, THE LEADERS OF JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES GAVE GOOD ADVICE TO MARRIED COUPLES. HOWEVER, IN 1972, ANAL AND ORAL SEX BECAME DISFELLOWSHIPPING OFFENSES. IN 1974, IT WAS DECIDED THAT ORAL AND ANAL SEX BETWEEN MARRIED COUPLES WERE PORNEIA, MEANING THAT THESE ACTIONS COULD DISSOLVE THE MARRIAGE AND LEAD TO DISFELLOWSHIPPING.
IN 1978, THIS VIEW WAS RETRACTED, AND ORAL AND ANAL SEX BETWEEN MARRIED COUPLES NEITHER WERE PORNEIA NOR COULD LEAD TO DISFELLOWSHIPPING. IN 1983, ANAL AND ORAL SEX BETWEEN MARRIED COUPLES AGAIN BECAME DISFELLOWSHIPPING OFFENSES, BUT IT COULD NOT DISSOLVE THE MARRIAGE. IN 2026, ORAL AND ANAL SEX BETWEEN COUPLES WERE NO LONGER DISFELLOWSHIPPING OFFENSES.
THE ZIG-ZAG DECISIONS OF THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY SHOW THAT THESE ARE HUMAN COMMANDMENTS. FROM A BIBLICAL POINT OF VIEW, THE ELDERS OR THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE NO RIGHT TO SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MARRIED COUPLES.
THE GOVERNING BODY MAKING THE DIVINE GIFT OF SEX FILTHY (III) DISFELLOWSHIPPING ON THE BASIS OF LEWD THOUGHTS AND INCLINATIONS
IMAIN POINTS: IT IS OBVIOUS THAT CHRISTIANS SHOULD NOT BE DISFELLOWSHIPPED BECAUSE OF THEIR THOUGHTS AND INCLINATIONS. BUT THIS IS THE CASE AMONG JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES BECAUSE OF DISFELLOWSHIPPING OFFENSES THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE INVENTED AND INTRODUCED.
PORNOGRAPHY IS NOT MENTIONED IN THE BIBLE. BUT THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE DECIDED THAT VIEWING ONE OF 11 DIFFERENT FORMS OF PORNOGRAPHY IS A DISFELLOWSHIPPING OFFENSE. EACH OF THESE FORMS OF PORNOGRAPHY IS DISCUSSED, AND IT IS SHOWN THERE ARE PROBLEMS IN DEFINING MOST OF THESE FORMS.
THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE INVENTED THE CONCEPT “GROSS UNCLEANNESS WITH GREEDINESS,” WHICH HAS NO BASIS IN THE BIBLE. THOSE WHO ARE DISFELLOWSHIPPED BECAUSE OF A VIOLATION OF THIS CONCEPT ARE ALSO DISFELLOWSHIPPED BECAUSE OF THEIR THOUGHTS AND INCLINATIONS.

THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE REJECTED A BASIC SIDE OF THE RANSOM SACRIFICE AND THE RESURRECTION
The issue: The Christian Greek Scriptures teach that when Jesus died, he died for all Adam’s descendants, and he bought them all. The ransom guaranties that all Adam’s descendants, except those who are permeated by wickedness, like Judas, will receive a resurrection during the thousand-year reign of Jesus with the chance of choosing everlasting life.
The present members of the Governing Body reject this view. They believe that Jesus died only for those who will be saved and not for all Adam’s descendants. This false belief shows that the members of the Governing Body do not believe in the full inspiration of the Bible.
In 1924, The Watchtower rejected the view of the Bible Students of a restoration of all things, that is close to what is described in the first paragraph. In 1934, the view that Jesus died for all Adam’s descendants started to deteriorate. And a full-fledged denial that Jesus died for all is seen in The Watchtower of July 1, 1937, page 350:
as a man he must die to provide the ransom or redemptive price “for many” of the human race. For how many of the human race: all or only a part? Not for all, because the redemptive price results beneficially only to those who believe on and obey God and Christ Jesus.
In 1965, The Watchtower published 12 articles discussing the resurrection. These articles restored the view that the Bible Students held during the 50 years before 1924, that Jesus died for all Adam’s descendants. The last time this correct view was expressed in public, was in The Watchtower of March 15, 2000, page 3:
Jesus took Adam’s sinful, dying family as his own. He gave up the right to have a family of his own. By sacrificing his perfect human life, Jesus repurchased all mankind descended from Adam so that they could become His family, making Him their “Eternal Father.”—Isaiah 9:6, 7.
During the 21st century, the members of the Governing Body have returned to the belief held between 1934 and 1965 that Jesus died only for a part of Adam’s descendants. When the principal part of the ransom sacrifice is rejected, the whole ransom sacrifice is rejected.
The members of the Governing Body have rejected the principal part of the ransom sacrifice that Jesus died for all Adam’s descendants and bought all of them. Therefore, I bring articles that show what the ransom sacrifice really is and how the members of the Governing Body have rejected its basic part.
The article A detailed study of the ransom sacrifice of Jesus Christ discusses the various aspects of the ransom sacrifice, its application to all mankind, and specifically to the Jews, the 144,000 of the heavenly government, and those who have sinned against the holy spirit. It is shown that not only God’s love but also his righteousness is the basis of the ransom sacrifice.
The article The divine plan of the ages — The development toward a rejection of the ransom sacrifice (Part II) discusses how the view of the ransom sacrificed have changed among Jehovah’s Witnesses. Quotations from the Watchtower literature show that for 55 years before 1924, the Bible Students believed that Jesus died for all Adam’s descendants, and that all, except the few who were permeated by wickedness, will receive a resurrection on Judgment Day. More quotations show that between 1934 and 1965, the principal side of the ransom sacrifice, that Jesus died for all Adam’s descendants, was rejected. Between 1965 and 2000, the view of the Bible Students that Jesus died for all Adam’s descendants was restored. But in the 21st century, the ransom sacrifice was again rejected by the members of the Governing Body.
The article The divine plan of the ages — Resurrection for all who dies because of Adam’s sin (Part I) shows by quoting a number of scriptures that Jesus died for all Adam’s descendants and bought them all. It discusses the passages showing that Jesus died for all humans from a linguistic and grammatical point of view, showing how NWT84 and NWT13 in its text and footnotes have manipulated these scriptures, trying to show that they say that Jesus died for “all kinds of men” and not for “all men,”
The article Putting a smokescreen over the resurrection PART one shows that the members of the Governing Body do not accept the words of Jesus regarding the resurrection. Jesus said that the sins of all people will be forgiven except sin against the holy spirit. This means that all Adam’s descendants, except those who have sinned against the holy spirit will get a resurrection. The article shows that the present members of the Governing Body reject the words of Jesus.
The article Putting a smokescreen over the resurrection PART two shows how the members of the Governing Body plead ignorance regarding the destiny of some unbelievers when the great tribulation comes. They try to counter the view that billions will be everlastingly annihilated. But this is still the view of the members of the Governing Body.
The article Putting a smokescreen over the resurrection PART three shows that because of Jesus’ ransom sacrifice, all Adam’s descendants will get Adam’s chance. This means that they will become perfect after their resurrection, and in this condition, they will choose to serve God or not. The 144,000 who will reign with Jesus receive their chance in this old system of things. Those who have sinned against the holy spirit are also bought by Jesus. But because they are permeated by wickedness, they have already chosen to turn against God.
The article The devaluation and restriction of the ransom sacrifice III The destiny of 8 billion+ people when the great tribulation comes shows that the new view of the members of the Governing Body regarding the destiny of those who live when the great tribulation comes has not substantially changed. The view is that 8 billion+ people will be eternally annihilated in the great tribulation.
A DETAILED STUDY OF THE RANSOM SACRIFICE OF JESUS CHRIST
MAIN POINTS: THE STUDY SHOWS THAT NOT ONLY JESUS’ DEATH BUT ALSO HIS RESURRECTION WAS NECESSARY TO SAVE MANKIND.
TO MAKE THE RANSOM SACRIFICE JUDICIALLY VALID, JESUS HAD TO DIE, BE RESURRECTED, ASCENDING TO HEAVEN AND PRESENTING THE VALUE OF HIS LIFE TO JEHOVAH.
A BASIC REASON WHY JEHOVAH GOD INSTITUTED THE RANSOM SACRIFICE WAS HIS LOVE FOR MANKIND. BUT HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALSO PLAYED AN IMPORTANT ROLE: HE HAD TO BE RIGHTEOUS WHEN HE ACCEPTED THE RANSOM PRICE.
IN ADDITION TO THE RANSOM SACRIFICE, OTHER ACTIONS OF GOD IS NECESSARY TO SAVE ALL MANKIND.
THE DIVINE PLAN OF THE AGES — THE DEVELOPMENT TOWARD A REJECTION OF THE RANSOM SACRIFICE (PART II)
MAIN POINTS: (1879-1928) THE BIBLE STUDENTS BELIEVED THAT JESUS DIED FOR ALL ADAM’S DESCENDANTS, AND THAT ALL OF THEM, EXCEPT THE FEW THAT ARE PERMEATED BY WICKEDNESS, WILL GET A RESURRECTION.
1934-1965: THE BASIC SIDE OF THE RANSOM SACRIFICE, THAT JESUS DIED FOR ALL ADAM’S DESCENDANTS WAS REJECTED. THE VIEW WAS THAT JESUS ONLY DIED FOR THOSE WHO WILL BE SAVED.
1965-2000: THE VIEW OF THE BIBLE STUDENTS WAS RESTORED. THE BELIEF WAS THAT JESUS DIED FOR ALL ADAM’S DESCENDANTS, AND HE BOUGHT THEM ALL.
2000-2026: THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY AGAIN PRESENTED THE VIEW THAT JESUS ONLY DIED FOR THOSE WHO WILL BE SAVED.
THE DIVINE PLAN OF THE AGES — RESURRECTION FOR ALL WHO DIE BECAUSE OF ADAM’S SIN (PART I)
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2025/07/25/the-divine-plan-of-the-ages-resurrection-for-all-who-dies-because-of-adams-sin-part-i/)
MAIN POINTS: THE FINAL JUDGMENT OF ADAM’S DESCENDANTS IS NOT BASED ON WHAT THEY DO AS SINNERS BUT ON WHAT THEY DO AT THE END OF JUDGMENT DAY OF A THOUSAND YEARS, WHEN THEY NO LONGER HAVE SIN.
BOTH NWT84 AND NWT13 TRY TO SHOW THAT THE GREEK WORD PAS IN CONNECTION WITH THE SANSOM SACRIFICE DO NOT REFER TO “ALL” IN AN ABSOLUTE SENSE BUT TO “ALL KINDS OF.” A LINGUISTIC AND GRAMMATICAL ANALYSIS DEMONSTRATES THAT THIS IS A MANIPULATION OF THE TEXT OF THE CHRISTIAN GREEK SCRIPTURES.
PUTTING UP A SMOKESCREEN OVER THE RESURRECTION PART ONE
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2024/02/25/putting-up-a-smocescreen-over-the-resurrection/)
MAIN POINTS: THE CHRISTIAN GREEK SCRIPTURES SAY THAT JESUS DIED FOR ALL ADAM’S DESCENDANTS, AND HE BOUGHT THEM ALL. BUT THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY DO NOT ACCEPT THE WORDS OF JESUS.
ACCORDING TO MATTHEW 12:31, JESUS SAID THAT ALL SINS WILL BE FORGIVEN EXCEPT SIN AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT. THIS MEANS THAT ONLY PERSONS WHO HAVE SINNED AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL NOT GET A RESURRECTION.
JESUS SAID THAT THE INHABITANTS OF CHORAZIN, CAPERNAUM, BETHSAIDA, SODOM, AND GOMORRAH, AS WELL AS THE JEWISH NATION IN HIS DAYS WILL BE RESURRECTED. THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY DENY THIS.
PUTTING UP A SMOKESCREEN OVER THE RESURRECTION PART TWO
https://mybelovedreligion.no/2024/02/25/putting-up-a-smocescreen-over-the-resurrection/
MAIN POINTS: THAT 8 BILLION+ WILL BE EVERLASTINGLY ANNIHILATED IN THE GREAT TRIBULATION IS A TEACHING THAT MOST PEOPLE FIND REPULSIVE. IN THE WATCHTOWER OF MAY 2024, THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY TRY TO DISTANCE THEMSELVES FROM THIS VIEW.
JESUS SHOWS THAT THE GREAT FLOOD IS A PROPHETIC PICTURE OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION. BUT THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY DENY THAT.
THEY CLAIM IGNORANCE AS TO THE DESTINY OF ALL PEOPLE WHO LIVE WHEN THE GREAT TRIBULATION COMES. SOME MAY BE SAVED AFTER THE BEGINNING OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION. THIS DOES NOT COUNTER THEIR PREVIOUS VIEW THAT 8 BILLION+ WILL BE EVERLASTINGLY ANNIHILATED IN THE GREAT TRIBULATION.
THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS THAT ALL WHO ARE NOT SERVING JEHOVAH GOD WILL DIE IN THE GREAT TRIBULATION. BUT ALL OF THEM, EXCEPT THOSE WHO HAVE SINNED AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT, WILL RECEIVE A RESURRECTION.
PUTTING UP A SMOKESCREEN OVER THE RESURRECTION PART THREE
https://mybelovedreligion.no/2024/02/25/putting-up-a-smocescreen-over-the-resurrection/
MAIN POINTS: THE RANSOM SACRIFICE GUARANTEES THAT EACH DESCENDANT OF ADAM WILL GET ADAM’S CHANCE. THIS MEANS THAT ALL WHO HAVE NOT SINNED AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL RECEIVE A RESURRECTION AND BECOME PERFECT. IN THIS CONDITION EACH ONE WILL DECIDE TO SERVE GOD OR NOT.
ADAM WAS A PERFECT MAN WHO CHOSE TO VIOLATE GOD’S LAW. BY THEIR INHERITANCE, ALL HIS DESCENDANTS BECAME SINNERS. CHOOSING TO SERVE GOD OR NOT IN A SITUATION OF SIN IS A VIOLATION OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. BECAUSE OF THIS, GOD WILL RESURRECT ALL OF ADAM’S DESCENDANTS, EXCEPT THOSE WHO ARE PERMEATED BY WICKEDNESS. THEY WILL BE PERFECT AT THE END OF THE THOUSAND-YEAR LONG JUDGMENT DAY, AND THEN THEY GET THE SAME CHANGES AS ADAM TO SERVE GOD OR NOT.
THE DEVALUATION AND RESTRICTION OF THE RANSOM SACRIFICE III THE DESTINY OF 8 BILLION+ PEOPLE WHEN THE GREAT TRIBULATION COMES
(https://mybelovedreligion.no/2024/07/04/the-devaluation-and-restriction-of-the-ransom-sacrifice-iii-the-distiny-of-8-billion-people-when-the-great-tribulation-comes/)
MAIN POINTS: THAT 8 BILLION+ PEOPLE, MOST OF WHOM HAVE NOT HAD THE CHANCE TO SERVE GOD, WILL BE EVERLASTINGLY ANNIHILATED IN THE GREAT TRIBULATION IS REPULSIVE FOR MANY PEOPLE.
THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY HAVE TRIED TO HIDE WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN BY PLEADING IGNORANCE, AS WE SEE IN THE WATCHTOWER OF MAY 2024. SOME CALCULATIONS ARE MADE, AND IT IS SHOWN THAT ABOUT 6 BILLION PEOPLE HAVE NOT HAD THE CHANCE TO ACCEPT OR REJECT THE RANSOM SACRIFICE WHEN THE GREAT TRIBULATION COMES.
THE VIEWPOINTS OF THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY IN THE WATCHTOWER OF MAY 2024 ARE DISCUSSED IN DETAIL. AND THE NEW VIEWPOINTS DO NOT CONTRADICT THE VIEW THAT 8 BILLION+ PEOPLE WILL BE EVERLASTINGLY ANNIHILATED IN THE GREAT TRIBULATION.
THE TRUTH IS THAT ONLY JEHOVAH’S PEOPLE WILL SURVIVE THE GREAT TRIBULATION, AND ALL OTHERS WILL LOSE THEIR LIVES. BUT ALL THESE PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT PERMEATED BY WICKEDNESS WILL RECEIVE A RESURRECTION. WHAT PREVENTS THE MEMBERS OF THE GOVERNING BODY FROM BELIEVING THIS IS THEIR FAILURE TO BELIEVE THAT JESUS DIED FOR ALL ADAM’S DESCENDANTS.
